​Oby Ezekwesili, one of the founders of the #BringBackOurGirls Campaign has lashed out at Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris for saying that the group is disturbing the peace of Abuja.

Speaking during their daily sit out, Ezekwesili said, “Our response is that he (IGP) should ask for the file that recorded our advocacy between 2014 and 2015 when the previous administration used all kinds of tactics similar to this one to try to violate our constitutional liberty.

”Not only did the constitution uphold that right, the court also upheld our rights. He should just read this files, he should be able to find what he needs in order to educate himself properly about democracy and citizens’ right to peaceful assembly. We are a peaceful movement as everyone knows, so we are not changing anything, no retreat, no surrender.

”Are our girls back? If the government says that we are unreasonable in demanding for our Chibok girls in the way that we have been demanding for them since 2014, they need to show the evidence that counters our stance”.
